Daijisho is pretty awesome. I've been using it for a while. I love how when you're viewing games in your library it will automatically load a video in the background of that game. This saves a TON of space, as I usually scrape videos to go with my roms on other devices.
Even though I’ve done this a few times, I definitely will be watching this again for the two devices I have coming. A great excuse to watch this again 😂
As someone new to using front ends on Android portables, I found this very helpful. Especially setting the right emulator so the games will launch. I didn't have to do anything for NES but for some other platforms I was having issues. Thanks for the helpful video!
ha! thanks for the section at 5:34. I' have a new Pocket 2S, and am new to this fiddling around with android, (which may explain my terrible luck emulating on my Galaxy Tab) and this "kill the process" box was downright maddening. I must've accidentally gotten this working on a couple of systems. Now to get emulators to remember my controller layout, that's my next challenge...
Great video Joey! My RG405M is on the way and it's gonna be first Android handheld I have. I'm a bit worried about Android/Daijisho setup progress because in Linux side, most things are already configured. This guide will be very helpful to people like me who got their first Android handheld device.
Thanks for the video. Very informative without all the fluff I see from a lot of creators. I'm just getting into emulation but this is my number 1 channel for it. Thank you!
This's really starting to feel like a community. Cool video. Couldn't have got the thing working without it. BUT.....PS2 bios files - I've got roms, but it's like daijisho won't acknowledge that they're in the file. I've got 8/16 bit and MAME all working fine. It's just ps2 and x68000 I got issues with. Though x68000 recognises that there's games in the file, they just won't launch. Cheers guys.
I'm having problems setting up PS1 on Daijisho. My Xenogears Disc 1 and 2 files are in .bin format, but it's not adding it to the PS1 library whenever I sync it. Any ideas?

Hi Joey thanks for the fast Answer on my question a couple of minutes ago.The thing is that when I play nintendo DS I have these ugly onscreen buttons , how can I get rid of these??
Hey Joey. I tried daijisho on a couple devices running into the same problem. Autoload won't work on ps1 (duckstation). Did you run into similar problems? How did you solve them?
Is there anyway to view a folder/subfolder in the library? like NES/platform? it usually shows all the games in the list, which is quite confusing and overwhelming
Been having player error when launching YabaSanshiro 2 Pro, M64Plus FZ Emulator and Redream, Daijisho detects them, but just can't launch it. Any idea?
Apologies, I forgot to mention that both M64plus and Redream used to work but recently doesn't. I'm not sure which update broke them on Android 13. Would you recommend retroarch instead for N64, Dreamcast and Saturn rather than standalone? Tried retroarch back in 2022 and it could not detect SD card so I gave up and used standalones. @@JoeysRetroHandhelds

Can you tell us how to get Sega CD and PCEngine Cd to run, being trying for ages. Changed settings and tried all the different emulators, just a blank screen with the stopped working message at the end...
Nice video. Is there a possibility to save extra settings for only one emulator? My problem is if i play psp games the screen is set 90⁰ clockwise. If i change the setting 8n retrarch by the video output to set 90 instead of normal, psp games a show crrectly but all other emulations are 90⁰ ?😢
This is great! I have this installed on my Quest 3 headset and it seems to work pretty well, but I can't control or start anything with the controllers. How can I configure this to work with Quest 3 controllers? Is it possible?
Do roms need to be loaded into RetroArch, or just the cores (with the games in the Daijisho library and the core selected)? I keep getting an error when trying to use RetroArch cores, but standalone emulators work fine.
Thanks for the guidance, though with more testing it looks like it's a bug/limitation of RetroArch with Daijisho when using external storage for games as RetroArch can't read the path.
I've added a few DOS games that didn't end up working well so I deleted them, but the paths/icons still remain - There are loads of broken paths clogging up my library - is there a quick way I can remove all broken links to files I've removed?

Hi Joey thanks for the fast Answer on my question a couple of minutes ago.The thing is that when I play nintendo DS I have these ugly onscreen buttons , how can I get rid of these??
Hey, you would need to turn them off inside of whichever emulator you're using to play Nintendo DS games.
Got a decent task manager for Android? The handhelds dont have the apps button.
Hey Joey. I tried daijisho on a couple devices running into the same problem. Autoload won't work on ps1 (duckstation). Did you run into similar problems? How did you solve them?
